ASME SA182 F310 Stainless Steel Flange for Oil and Gas Pipeline Application

ASME SA182 F310 Stainless Steel Flange for Oil and Gas Pipeline Application

ASTM A182 F310 refers to low alloy steel forgings and it belongs to stainless steel. It‘s also a common flange material and also a material with a large order quantity in our company, so we have rich experience in this type of product.

Corrosion resistant steel with a chromium content of no less than 12% is the abbreviation for stainless acid resistant steel. The interaction between chromium in steel and oxygen in corrosive media forms a thin oxide film on the surface of the steel, called self passivation film, which makes the steel highly resistant to corrosion in air, water, acid, alkali, and salt. In addition to chromium, alloy elements such as nickel, molybdenum, copper, and titanium can also be added to steel to improve its corrosion resistance, processability, or mechanical properties. Stainless steel is generally divided into three categories: chromium stainless steel, chromium nickel stainless steel, and high-strength stainless steel.

Mechanical Properties of A182 F310 Stainless Steel Forged Flanges

ASTM A182 F310 Stainless Steel Forged Flange Application:

• Heat treatment furnaces: Radiant tube flanges and furnace roller bearing seats. Operating temperatures range from 980-1150°C, primarily in a carburizing/nitriding atmosphere.
• Petrochemical cracking furnaces: Cracking furnace tube outlet flanges. Operating temperatures range from 850-1050°C, primarily using hydrocarbon pyrolysis gas as the working medium.
• Power boilers: Superheater header flanges. Operating temperatures range from 650-800°C, primarily using high-pressure steam.
